$BR |Funding rate -0.106%|Shorts pay|Current price 0.4429
Before looking at fund flows, first understand the funding rate.
This payment is settled directly between longs and shorts; it is not a fee charged by the exchange.
A clearly positive rate is generally seen as a sign that sentiment among longs is overheated and that more leveraged capital is going long; a clearly negative rate suggests the opposite.
The same reading can mean very different things in different market conditions, so don’t apply a single rule blindly.
